Install problems with 5.5.6

haughki commented 1 month ago

Hi, Thanks very much for maintaining and improving NatLink. The new (to me) installer and config UI is great, and I'm really happy that I no longer need Python 2.

I just did a clean install of 5.5.6. I ran into a few bumps, thought I would pass on here:

After running the installer .exe, I went to the start menu and clicked "Configure Natlink via GUI". I just got a brief spinner and nothing else.
I eventually found "natlinkconfig_gui.exe". Running that via CLI ended with "KeyError: 'unimacrogrammarsdirectory'". So, I ran Python\Python310-32\lib\site-packages\natlinkcore> python .\configure\natlinkconfig_gui.py and got the same error.
I debugged that module, and eventually found that I needed a "unimacrogrammarsdirectory" entry under "[directories]" in my "natlink.ini"
Once I added a dummy value for that, the config UI ran fine and worked as expected.

I think this is solved already for the next release. I will check this. Thanks Haughki for mentioning this!

Haughki, please reopen when problems persist after a new release.
